The big annoucement Friday helped my focus take shape. No longer was a hiding a dirty secret, and I received overwhelming support and kind words from everyone. Thanks much for that.
I haven't posted a workout update in some time. I've been busy updating the workout site, as well as working out. Six out of the past seven days I've been on the bike or running. Saturday I had my longest run yet: a meager 5 miles in 48 minutes. The good news is that's way better than I went in the Crazylegs run in April, and I wasn't even trying as hard.
I'm taking today off, and possibly tomorrow to rest my legs. I say possibly, because if I can get a membership to the UW system between now and then, I'll start swimming. I also bought The Triathlete's Training Bible to guide me through the next year. It's jam packed with great advice and tips.
As for the diet, I'm hovering around 20 pounds lost, putting me at 193. This morning, I had to use the next tighter notch on my belt in order for it to fit. I've never used that notch before.
